Just came across this thread. It looks like it does exactly what I need... almost. I'm new to vBulletin - does anyone know how to tweak this so that users get added to additional usergroups instead of moved to a different primary one?
I assume this could be changed by editing this part:
Code:
$user['usergroupid'] = $vbulletin->options['creggroup'];
$userdata->set('usergroupid', $user['usergroupid']);
$userdata->set_usertitle(
$user['customtitle'] ? $user['usertitle'] : '',
false,
$display_usergroup,
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['canusecustomtitle']) ? true : false,
($user_usergroup['genericpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['cancontrolpanel']) ? true : false
);
I'm just not familiar enough with vB yet; I assume it could simply be about using a different key/parameter instead of "usergroupid" in the first couple of lines.
I'd appreciate any help or input!
@AshenTemper / case-sensitive issues...
While a vB newbie, I do know PHP, and you could achieve case-insensitivity by editing the code a tiny bit. Open the XML file in a text editor (e.g. Notepad, not Word) and look at like 30 that contains the following:
Code:
if (substr($cruser['email'],strlen($cremail)*-1) == $cremail)
Replace this line with the following:
Code:
if (strtolower(substr($cruser['email'],strlen($cremail)*-1)) == strtolower($cremail))
What this will do is turn ANY capital letter into lowercase on both ends before comparing the two - i.e. both the list you've entered in admin and the email the user signed up with will be converted to lowercase for comparison. I haven't tested this, but it should do the trick.
I realize that you asked this question about a year ago, but maybe this will help others down the road.
